By Adrian Rodriguez [email protected] @adrianrrodri on Twitter A big-top tent will soon return to downtown San Rafael for yet an- other cleanup of a former Pacific Gas and Electric Co. lot, after soil tests revealed contamination on a portion of the property. The cleanup is only one hurdle to clear for BioMarin Pharmaceu- ticals, which is seeking to use the 3-acre site at 999 Third Ave. for a joint development project with Whistlestop, the nonprofit agency that offers services for seniors. The San Rafael-based company also will need to pass a separate lengthy environmental impact re- view process, which is kicking off next month with a “scoping” meet- ing where the public can weigh in on environmental concerns. “Upon completion of PG&E’s cleanup, BioMarin acquired the property with the original PG&E buildings still intact,” said Debra Charlesworth, a BioMarin spokes- woman. “Once BioMarin removed JAMES CACCIATORE — MARIN INDEPENDENT JOURNAL these buildings it was determined Highway 37 westbound lanes were closed between Atherton Avenue and Highway 101 Friday after rising water broke through an that a full remediation of the west- embankment and breached a levee. ern end was necessary to accom- modate the future housing and re- search and development facilities.” Roadway: Full Mudslide: Victim CLEANUP >> PAGE 2 shutdown might recovering after occur if water Sausalito home CALIFORNIA level increases falls down hill State to sue By Matthew Pera By Matthew Pera [email protected] [email protected] over Trump’s @MatthewRPera on Twitter @MatthewRPera on Twitter Transportation officials Susan Gordon woke up to a emergency steered westbound travelers noise Thursday morning that away from a lake-like pool of sounded like a freight train com- water on Highway 37 on Friday, ing toward her.

BOYS BASKETBALL NBA Currys excited for ‘reunion’ HAWKS FALL SHORT at All-Star Tam’s early lead disappears in NCS loss to 14th-seed Las Lomas weekend

By Steve Reed The Associated Press

CHARLOTTE, N.C. >> Dell Curry looks forward to those nights when he can open a bottle of wine, take a seat on his recliner in front of the fireplace alongside wife Sonya and watch their NBA sons play basketball simultane- ously on two large-screen televi- sion sets in his living room. Those are the nights he has to pinch himself realizing how blessed his family is. Everyone in the Curry clan has been pinching themselves lately; the family has been downright giddy about NBA All-Star Week- end. “It’s going to be incredible,” said Curry, a former NBA player and color commentator for the Hornets TV network who still lives in Charlotte. “It’s going to be a mini family reunion.” There will be plenty of fellow- shipping in Charlotte, including family dinners and group out- ings. Of course there also will be a little basketball.
